You are a child man said would never be,
So I put my trust into a higher Authority
So one night down on my knees I went
And to the Heavenly Father thi prayer I ent.

I asked the Father for a little girl,
I told him what I wanted as the prayer unfurled.
It wasn't long after that to your Mother's surprise,
She said a child was to be born as joy filled her eyes.

I can tell you that there is a God up above,
For everything I asked for, He sent with his love.
I know as a father that sometimes I've done wrong,
I ask you to forgive me and let's move on.

One thing I can tell you, !love you with all my heart,
My life I would give for you no que tions from the start.
This love I get from my Heavenly Father you see,
He sent His Son that did the same thing for me.

I tell you all of this that you might know
That when I can't be there you have somewhere to go
To get the answers that you will need
To guide you through life and to succeed.

Give Jesus your heart, soul and mind.
He 'II never let you down or leave you behind.
You are an example of what He 's done for me.
I thank Him daily, !love you,
Love Daddy
